The last time I hit reload that many times I was trying to buy Radiohead tickets.

Miraculously I got the tickets, but I was not as lucky during yesterday’s wild rush to purchase a Doug and Mike Starn print via Jen Bekman’s 20×200. According to the Hey, Hot Shot! blog, the edition sold out in a Radiohead-worthy seven minutes.

According to 20×200, this is part one of paired Starn prints, so I’ll certainly be clicking furiously when the next one is released.

If you haven’t already been keeping an eye on 20×200 (and I’m not sure who this is, as it has been *blowing up* as of late), looks like now is the time. All sorts of good stuff popping up over there! (Wink, wink).
